Hi All,
I am not an electrician. I am a facilities manager. I understand that the GEC must be attached to the water service before the first shut off valve.My first question is can I install a die-electric union after the valve? Second question,Do all of the copper pipes in a building need to be grounded via this GEC connection. Third question,Can I use a seperate grounding conductor that would be attached to the copper pipes that are on the interior of the building that would be connected to grounding rods?
